NSF/NCAR C-130 Spectral (TDDR) Measurements
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/69.085

Summary
This dataset contains radiation measurements made during ACE-ASIA on the C-130
aircraft. Archived data consists of two spectral narrowband radiometers (one
uplooking and one downlooking). Each TDDR (Total-Direct-Diffuse Radiometer)
had a hemispherical field-of-view, and a scanning shadowband was used (only on
the uplooking instrument) to regularly block the sun thus allowing
determination of the total, direct, and diffuse components of the radiation
field. All data is in .cdf format.
